I wouldn't call it nice.  I'd call it ***CRUCIAL***.  The water soluble ink,
all by itself, causes me to just flat out rule out buying a DeskWriter
completely, period, no questions asked, regardless of the price.

Has HP or /dev/rumor said anything to the effect that HP will really do this?
I wonder if there's something in the ink deposit technology that means we
shouldn't hold our breath for water-fast ink.  Anybody really *know* anything
here?
